  • Application for the Landscape Award of the Council of Europe 2019
    Application for the Landscape Award of the Council of Europe 2019 Landscape futures -Visions and plans for the countryside ‘Landscape Futures’ is the name of an action research programme carried out in 2013-18 with the aim to place the future of rural landscapes on the multidisciplinary agenda and to renew Danish countryside planning. Most of the participating landscape planning projects were completed in 2016 but many - as the overall programme – continued and are still ‘active’ in terms of actions taken. The programme was organized as a partnership between three Danish universities (Aalborg University, University of Southern Denmark, and University of Copenhagen), Aarhus School of Architecture, the National Agricultural Advisory Service, Danish Outdoor Council, Danish Hunters Association, and 11 municipalities. Twelve concrete ‘real- life’ planning projects owned by eleven municipalities and the Danish Hunters Association constitute the programme’s laboratory. Insights and solutions gained from these very different projects represent the most important outcomes of the programme. In addition, a number of events have been organized by the programme including ten public lectures on ‘European Landscapes in transition’, seven thematic seminars, an international conference in cooperation with Uniscape, a national conference and a museum exhibition. The main results of the programme are published in the Danish book, ‘Landscape Futures – visions and plans for the countryside’ (Bogværket, February 2019). Additionally, a number of other publications draw on the programme including ‘European Landscape in Transition – implications for policy and planning’ published by Cambridge University Press 2018. The twelve projects have affected protection, management, and enhancements of the landscapes in question and most of them have had clear impacts on municipal planning and landscape management.

Conceptualisation and evaluation of participation in danish state forest management. Copenhagen: Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, Danish Forest. Download date: 07. Apr. 2020 1 Introduction 1.1 Introduction Democracy is not a universal and pre-existing condition of society. We continuously challenge each other in the question about how we want to govern and be governed, and democracy is continuously changed and developed in interaction with society developing. Some people regard democracy primarily as a set of procedures to aggregate a plurality of interests into policy on which society can be governed (Ross 1967), whereas others regard democracy as a way of life (Koch 1981) that is exercised and kept alive through citizens’ active participation and construction of political life (Kristensen 1998; Sørensen 1995). The premises of democracy changes. The Danish society has changed from the 1950-60s' economic growth and technology optimism to the 1970s' oil crisis and pollution problem, financial restrictions on private consumption in the 1980s and modernisation of the ever growing public sector, to the 1990s’ debate about sustainable development. Our knowledge base and technological opportunities have increased tremendously over the last 50 years. This causes a range of options, each of which is connected with more or less well-known risks, where someone has to make the necessary choices, with its more or less well-known distributions consequences.

  • 3Rd Report on Results of Task Force Interventions
    WP4 – Task Forces’ Interventions D.4.1.3 Final report on results of task force interventions Aim of the Task Forces is to provide support to little and medium-sized purchasing organizations (P.O.) for the implementation of interventions of Green Public Procurement related to the energy sector, in order to obtain energy efficiency and CO2 reductions and to build – up skills among local staff so to promote further replication of GPP in the public sector. The results obtained in terms of energy savings and CO2 reduction will contribute to reach the targets of the EU 2020 strategy and, in the long run, the promotion of the GPP approach in the target regions will positively influence the development of the local markets towards sustainable development. The Task Forces of the 6 target regions are composed by staff members of the project partners with the participation of external experts and stakeholders (aimed to provide training, technical support and to promote networking), this means in general 5-15 people directly working together under the coordination of the TF leaders (LEIF, REA, RAEE, ESS, ZEA, LIG) benefiting from further support provided by ICLEI. According to the specific situation, the Task Forces have carried on different activities aimed to the implementation of the interventions which, beyond specific technical activities (like identification of environmental criteria to be inserted in the tenders and evaluation of effective solutions for implementation of energy efficiency), varied from awareness rising and GPP training, to legal support, to collaboration with suppliers and existing GPP networks. Preparatory activities for interventions Engagement of project beneficiaries During the first project period the list of beneficiaries selected at the beginning of Primes has been revised according to the ongoing situation in the partners’ territories so that new participants have been involved and are now committed to the project activities (see the list below).
